Bit of advice needed please re uc child element

janer1967

Hi there

My son is starting college in September it is classed as full time course even though it will only be 2.5 days a week

Mt question is if he was to get a part time job would this affect my benefits eg uc child element , child benefit and council tax reduction

Or because he is still in full time education will he still be classed as a dependant and no change to my benefits

Thanks in advance

If he gets a part time job it wouldn’t affect your UC or child benefit.

I'd like to think council tax reduction wouldn't either as he's under 18 so not liable to contribute but I don't know for definite about that

Edit: Sorry I didn't see poppy had already replied

You are correct CTR won't be affected. No worries about replying, it happens to me all the time when i don't see other replies before commenting.
